Young Love layout by designer Patty Folchert featuring Jillibean Soup

This layout is for my college age daughter’s album, I wanted to capture the young and in love chapter she is in right now. So I chose some versatile new Soup Staples III papers & embellishments and added some Vintologie stamp sentiments.

Young Love layout by Patty Folchert

I thought it would be fun to repeat the XOXO theme, so I used a XOXO stencil, circle tag, family note card and kraft XOXO paper. It all began with a plain white cardstock background and a Cat’s Eye Red ink pad used to ink the XOXO stencil on the page as shown. Then I chose some coordinating Soup Staples III papers as mats and backers for the tags, as you can see in the photo below:

Then I stamped the “Story of Us” sentiment onto the kraft paper in black ink. After that I stamped the “You & Me” sentiment onto a Ephemera pack label as shown in red ink. Then I added the other stickers and embellishments to complete the layout. Using the sewing machine and white thread I framed out the gray patterned mat in a straight stitch for some added texture. 

Do you have an album that could use some extra hugs and kisses? Give this layout a try, it is full of love and layers.

Watching Life Unfold, 
Patty
